Best time to travel

Zambia predominantly has a wet (starting from November till April) and dry season (from around May to October) instead of summer and winter due to its sub tropical climate. Most travelers prefer to visit towards the end of the wet season when the Falls are at their peak and the wildlife prolific. During the dry season the Falls may dry up on the Zambian side and visitors will need to cross to the Zimbabwean for Fall viewing.
